I know I am her favorite flower; I shoot up in a spike of yellow bloom to snatch her attention away from all other flowers at home in this small garden patch. ...but the Gladiolus is coming with spikes much bolder than mine and I shall wither away in the shadow of its glorious blooms, dropping seed for another spring day.

Thank you. Snapdragons really are my favorite flowers. At least until the Gladiolus blooms.
